Map Push Pins & Tacks

single green map push pin tack

No ordinary office pins, our map push pins (sometimes called "map tacks" or "ball pins") are specifically designed for the purpose of marking places on a map. They are perfectly sized to identify cities, countries, towns, islands, mountains, or other places...while still allowing the map label to be read under the pin.

Any of our maps can be ordered either as a "pinable" mounted map or framed map, which are both compatible with map pins.

Furthermore, whenever you order a mounted or framed map from our map collection, we'll include a box of 100 map pins (PM100MIX) at no extra charge.

Technical Details of Map Pins

single green map push pin tack

Our map push pins are made from high quality stainless steel.

The color of the pin comes from the spherical ball of plastic that is molded to the top of pin.

The pointed end of the pin (tack) is sharp enough to puncture through various map surfaces.

Pinable Surfaces

These pins are perfect to use with our mounted and framed maps which use a rigid foamcore backing. Puncturing the foamcore surface is easy and the pins stay secure.

Additionally, our map pins can also tack other common materials like corrugated cardboard, corkboard, and gatorboard. With and a bit of effort they can even be used to tack many types of wood.

While we don't recommend pinning directly to a wall, the push pins can also easily puncture plaster and drywall.
